It name reveals everything: Portuguese meats, sausages, and vegetables cooked together.It's recognized as one of the oldest dishes in Portuguese cuisine, a typically home-cooked meal, and is easily found on the menus of traditional restaurants.In reality, it's not 100% Portuguese in origin, as there's a very similar recipe in Spain, "olla podrida" or "cocido," in France "Pot-au-feu," and in Italy "Bollito misto." The ingredients and flavors vary slightly, but the technique used is always the same: cooking food in water over low heat.What truly distinguishes Portuguese Stew from stews in the rest of Europe are the sausages. And these are essential in any version of Portuguese Stew.Each region has its own preferred meats and vegetables, but a proper Cozido (Portuguese stew) must include at least one meat sausage and one blood sausage, pig's ear, turnip, and Portuguese cabbage.INGREDIENTS:300 grams of beef for braising½ pig's trotter1 small pig's ear300 grams of streaky bacon300 grams of pork ribs1 meat chorizo1 black pudding1 blood chorizo1 farinheira sausage1 small Portuguese cabbage1 small Savoy cabbage2 medium turnips2 medium potatoes2 carrots1 measure of rice (350ml)1 measure of the broth in which the meats were cooked, 1 measure of water.PREPARATION:Start by cooking all the meats and sausages in the same pot with water, salt, and pepper.

Finally, the chiado (a type of sausage), pig's ear, and beef, which take the longest to cook.Then use the broth from the meats to prepare the remaining ingredients for the stew.Start by heating a drizzle of olive oil in a pan, fry 1 cup of rice – about 350ml – and add 1 measure of broth and another of water. Season with pepper and cook for 18-20 minutes. Adjust the salt if you think the broth is bland.In another pan, reserve broth to heat 2 small cans of white beans.Next, prepare the
